I wanted to sort of intentionally leave it open-ended. The purpose of the story is that this world is so awful and cruel, but anything except the system they were in is unimaginable, literally. It's sort of like our own world--we all complain about the corruption and poverty and discrimination, but a world without those things has never existed so it seems alien and impossible to us.
